Description We studied IS on prey type and size in three congeneric euryphagous sympatrically occurring species: Philodromus albidus, Philodromus aureolus, and Philodromus cespitum. We performed prey acceptance experiments in standardized laboratory conditions using adult females. We also studied possible factors affecting IS.
